OpenId on Android

Question

I would like to give my users the ability to log into the Android application using OpenId (have a text box like StackOverflow, and ask the user to enter its OpenId). I looked around a lot, but could not find libraries that allow me to implement authentication on the client side of OpenId on Android. Should I better use server side authentication, i.e. authenticate through my own site and transfer control to the application after authentication?

Thanks,

Abhinav

Check out this link, it is a library that allows you to verify OpenID using Java programs. I have never tried it with Android, but I would suggest that it should work.
